Yes. That is definitely how it feels, if not in quite that context, then it captures the power some people manage to hold over you and how you don't care, just want to trust them. I hope that makes sense, and I don't wan't to over-analyze, because...that just kills something.

This is beautifully dark and a delicious read, though perhaps delicious isn't the right word. Compelling works better. Excellent. I'm gonna go read some more of your stuff.
